It's even cheaper (delivered) from some of the Amazon marketplace sellers.
(edit... but not cheaper than £17)
Mine arrived this morning, looks good!

Can someone please explain the logic of reducing a Brand New book price please - confused in Devon ?
Amazon quoting 25 as original price..
Because trade discount is a percentage of RRP. If WHS are selling at £17 they either get a massive discount or are not making much on each copy.

I presume that the publisher works on a wholesale price to deliver a profit on production costs and won't go below that until that level of profit is achieved. After that the wholesale price may reduce further.
The book sellers will go for whatever their corporate margin is on that product, and buyers love a cut price, so it's a win win win.
If it ever goes to reprint, production costs will be significantly less because all the design and formatting is done, unless I added an update chapter.
